A Bit of NARCISSISM can be very instructive! See yourself in print - Use a Search Engine for first and Last name (first letter in upper case) and follow rules for putting two words together:

 Alta Vista, enclose words in quotes,
 InfoSeek, put a hyphen between words; 

SavvySearch

... or search for Web pages with HotBot

The quickest way on the Narc's voyage is to try "people" sections in such popular directories as Search.Com or All-in=One Search Page.

How about an Internet Address Direectory? - The Four 11. is an e-mail directory, while Switchboard. focuses on home address and phone nunmber.

How about combining e-mail, phone numbers, and home addresses at InfoSpace.

For your presence on Newsgourp Posts type your E-mail address or user name in the "Quick Search of DEJANEWS., also listed below again.

If you have a Web Home page, see what others find my in a typical search like Ahoy! ..... and Yahoo!'s People Search..

Wide Angle Searches on the Web: This concept uses three approaches - 1) a list of search engines; 2) metasearch tool; 3) comprehensive searcher. Here are some examples of 1): Lists of search engines

The All-in-One Search Page lists 200 search tools.

Here you search several engines, and your request if formatted to that engine's needs. A very user-friendly list, The Configurable Unified Search Index (CUSI)means you only need to become familiar with one search format and enter a particular search only one time.

  A New Search Engine with 208 million documents in their database as of 12/29/95 is INKTOMI, "Ink to Me".

   

  ---

  2) - Metasearch tools

  A Metasearch engine does not maintain its own database of Web resources, but submits a request simultaneously to several other Web engines and/or directories. Here are THREE examples

  1] Search EIGHT other search tools: Excite, Galaxy, InfoSeek, Inktomi, Lycon, OpenText, WebCrawler, and Yahoo on MetaCrawler; each engine is given a limited response time, and limited geography/organization (you select).

  2] All the engines of "MetaCrawler" are used by SavvySearch, but the display can be in several languages.

  3] Based in Italy, a recent addition is USE IT!,featuring a number of international search tools. You may choose to recieve less than or more than 20 databases. The best way to search is with a single word.

   

  Yahoo Internet Life recommends Inference Find, commenting "This excellent metacrawler groups results into relevant subject headings" (Aug. 1998 Issue) (added 7/17/98)

  Finally, a "question-smart" search engine, ASK JEEVES. which takes plain english questions and directs you to sites with answers. (added, 9/21/98) SEE: Star Ledger, Sept. 21, 1998, p. 63 for references and article on usage.

   

  ---

  3) The comprehensive Search tool

  This tool reaches beyond the Internet to include familiar, commercially published indexes. - 1] Of all the wide-angle search tools, the broadest scope of all is NLightN - it not only searches through the Web, but also 500 proprietary databases; many of which are available elsewhere for a fee - but here, no charge. If there is a charge for a full text of a database, the range is from ten cents per citation.

  The lastest (1/4/97) search tool is FINDSPOTwhich offers searches of WEB, USENET, LISTSERV, and more.

  A NEW engine (5/15/97), LOOKSMART, offers a great menu for finding items by category that is excellent for young people and beginners. (See the iinteresting review in the Courier News, Sunday, Aug. 31,/97 pp. H7-H9) [thought I like it too!]

  Yahoo Internet Life issue for Aug., 1998 recommends Northern Light as a search engine with nunerous filtering options for good search focus (7/17/98).

    The psychology aod Carl Jung, Abraham Maslow and George Gurdjieff are a great influence on me and my ideas. More links in these areas will be added

    Here is the International Psychology Newsletter for a start.

    Timothy Learn and Richard Alpert of Harvard each made a profound contribution to the expansion of the mind. Anton Wilson and Leary combined a LEARYWILSON page where the home_page of each and other interesting links are available.

He later became Ram RASS, and added great literature to our understanding of the mind/body relationship. A page profiling DASS and others in the "mystical" tradition is The MYSTICFIRE. page. I have included ALAN WATTS in psychology because of his innovations in theology and philosophy through the BUDDHIST Psychology he helped to intoduce to the West.
